[LVS] Updating to 1.14.4!

[Zedwick]

The Village & Pillage update will soon be landing on Zedwork LVS!

I know many of you have been eagerly awaiting this update, but fair warning there are still outstanding issues with this update. Read more here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3133

These outstanding issues are not guaranteed to hit us, but they still might. So please be on the lookout for strange terrain once we have updated; particularly square patches of land which look out of place with their surroundings, as this may indicate a chunk has been overwritten. If you see any such issues, please report them either here or in private message to me (if you don't want to drop your base coordinates in public, which I would recommend not doing).

Fair warning: if we encounter issues which destroy our world we have worked on for years, we may rollback to 1.13.2 to await a fix in a future MC version. This means that any progress you make following our update to 1.14.4 may be temporary and end up reverted. Please don't let that hold you back from exploring the new content and building whatever it is you want to build, but please keep in mind that we might need to revert if there is widespread damage.

LVS will update to Minecraft 1.14.4 on Monday the 5th of August, 2019.

The update will take several hours, but hopefully not quite as many as the update to 1.13.2. There will be progress notifications broadcast in the lobby during the world upgrade process. There will be free to host ZestyGames available this weekend starting Friday, and ending Tuesday, which will give you something to do whilst you wait ^_^

Thanks Zed. Really appreciate it and your reserves on updating the server due to the issues still present in the build.

Really do hope this update doesn't put you in a hole of trying to keep the server stable. <3

I forgot to add the link to The State of 1.14 topic, which is now in the original post.

I also forgot to set up the free ZestyGames hosting, which is now live! The free hosting will now run for an extra day, until Wednesday. Have fun ^_^

It has now been a whole month, and not a whiff of the issues of concern above have hit LVS.

It is now incredibly unlikely we will need to do any rolling back to 1.13.2; If you were hesitating at all to invest time into any 1.14 projects, worry not!
